i sit at the awkward part of the bar
and we frown here
to make the kids all think we're from this part of the town
i sit at the awkward part of the bar
and we danced here
so the kids knew i wasn't from part of this town
before you were born
everything here
was orange orchards
but before you were born
everything here
was under oceans
someone learned dive here
and you learned to drive here
will you learn to survive or will you learn to die here?
